Hey y'all,

  Figured I'd make an introduction post. I'm Dalton, reside in East TN, and work under Justin & Brandon @ J&B Performance Cycles here in Mohawk TN. I've been with them for about two years now and have learned a bunch from them and still have a lot to go. Personal bike is an 07 FXDB, currently undergoing a 117 build, looking forward to getting into the drag racing scene this upcoming season.

Look forward to getting acquainted with y'all and learning what I can!

Howdy, welcome from Montana.

You're sure to find all kinds of good info in the technical sections and once you get to that point, you can get lost in the dyno and tuning sections. Have fun and don't worry about the bank account, we can keep it empty for you.

Lots of info for sure. And tuning is the highlight of my job, I think i've looked at more dyno sheets in the past two years than the rest of my life combined. Even more fun to be the guy helping to make them.

Welcome to the site, looking forward to your insights.
Do you get a chance to ride the bikes after tune? I'd be interested to hear opinions on different builds, some look similar on paper but may ride completely differently on the road.
If no one has warmed you yet, beware posts by Preacher's Son, you just never know where they might go!

Generally yes, or Brandon. I can offer whatever knowledge I personally have but I'm not as experienced as he is (yet ;) )
